Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anordnung mit einer Gepäckraumabdeckung in einem Fahrzeug nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to an arrangement with a luggage compartment cover in a vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1.

Bei einer bekannten Anordnung mit einer Gepäckraumabdeckung in einem Fahrzeug ist die Gepäckraumabdeckung mit seitlichen Lagerzapfen an aufbaufesten Lagerstellen an einem Auflagerahmen gelagert und zwischen einer, den Gepäckraum abdeckenden Schließstellung und einer Offenstellung verschwenkbar.In a known arrangement with a luggage compartment cover in a vehicle Luggage compartment cover with lateral bearing journals on fixed bearing points on one Support frame stored and between a closed position covering the luggage compartment and an open position pivotable.

Derartige Abdeckungen werden in Fahrzeugen verwendet, bei denen der Gepäckraum hinter der Rücksitzbank aber noch innerhalb der Fahrgastzelle angeordnet und über eine Heckklappe zugängig ist.Such covers are used in vehicles where the luggage compartment is behind the rear seat bench but still arranged within the passenger compartment and via a Tailgate is accessible.

Bei bekannten Anordnungen ist die Abdeckung über Haltebänder mit der Heckklappe verbunden. Beim Öffnen der Heckklappe wird zwangsweise auch die Gepäckraumabdeckung in ihre Offenstellung geschwenkt und gehalten. Da eine Gepäckraumabdeckung als Ablage für Gegenstände verwendet wird, ergibt sich durch eine zwangsweise Haltebandkoppelung mit der Heckklappe der Nachteil, daß bei jedem Öffnen der Heckklappe die Gepäckraumabdeckung in eine Schräglage geschwenkt und damit unerwünscht abgeräumt wird. Um dies zu vermeiden sind auch lösbare Haltebänder bekannt. Bei einer Lösung der Haltebänder wird jedoch die Gepäckraumabdeckung in ihrer Offenstellung nicht gehalten.In known arrangements, the cover is connected to the tailgate via straps. When the tailgate is opened, the luggage compartment cover is also forced into their open position pivoted and held. Since a luggage compartment cover as a shelf for Objects used, results from a forcible tether coupling the tailgate the disadvantage that the luggage compartment cover each time the tailgate is opened swiveled into an inclined position and thus undesirably cleared. To do this To avoid detachable straps are known. When the straps are released however, the luggage compartment cover is not held in its open position.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine gattungsgemäße Anordnung mit einer Gepäckraumabdeckung so weiterzubilden, daß auf Haltebänder verzichtet werden kann.The object of the invention is a generic arrangement with a luggage compartment cover to develop so that there is no need for straps.

Diese Aufgabe wird mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. This object is achieved with the characterizing features of patent claim 1.

Gemäß Anspruch 1 ist wenigstens ein vorgespanntes Stützelement mit einem Ende an der Gepäckraumabdeckung oder dem Auflagerahmen befestigt. Das Stützelement ist in der Schließstellung der Gepäckraumabdeckung in einer vorgespannten Ruhestellung gehalten. Bei einer Schwenkung der Gepäckraumabdeckung von Hand in deren Offenstellung ist das Stützelement aufgrund der Vorspannung selbsttätig mit seinem freien Ende in eine Stützstellung bewegbar, wobei die Gepäckraumabdeckung in der Offenstellung gegenüber dem Auflagerahmen abgestützt und gehalten ist.According to claim 1, at least one prestressed support element with one end on the Luggage compartment cover or the support frame attached. The support element is in the The closed position of the luggage compartment cover is held in a pretensioned rest position. When the luggage compartment cover is pivoted by hand in its open position, that is Support element automatically due to the bias with its free end in a support position movable, the luggage compartment cover in the open position opposite the Support frame is supported and held.

Die Bewegung der Gepäckraumabdeckung ist somit hier von einer Bewegung der Heckklappe entkoppelt. Nur wenn der Benutzer eine Offenstellung der Gepäckraumabdeckung wünscht, kann er diese von Hand hochschwenken, wodurch das vorgespannte Stützelement selbsttätig in seine Stützstellung gelangt und die Gepäckraumabdeckung in der Offenstellung hält.The movement of the luggage compartment cover is here of a movement of the Tailgate decoupled. Only if the user has the luggage compartment cover open wishes, he can swing it up by hand, which causes the pretensioned Support element automatically reaches its support position and the luggage compartment cover in that holds open position.

Grundsätzlich kann das vorgespannte Stützelement entweder an der Gepäckraumabdeckung oder dem Auflagerahmen befestigt sein. Bevorzugt wird das Stützelement in einer Baueinheit an der Gepäckraumabdeckung befestigt. Je nach den Gegebenheiten kann ein Stützelement in einem Seitenbereich der Gepäckraumabdeckung ausreichend sein. Es können auch mehrere Stützelemente, insbesondere je ein Stützelement in jedem Seitenbereich angebracht werden.In principle, the prestressed support element can either be on the luggage compartment cover or be attached to the support frame. The support element is preferably in a Unit attached to the luggage compartment cover. Depending on the circumstances, a Support element in a side area of the luggage compartment cover may be sufficient. It can also have several support elements, in particular one support element in each side area be attached.

In einer bevorzugten, konkreten Ausführungsform ist das Stützelement als schwenkbar vorgespannter Stützhebel ausgebildet, wobei wenigstens ein Stützhebel in einem seitlichen Bereich der Gepäckraumabdeckung gelagert ist. In der Ruhestellung des Stützhebels entsprechend der Schließstellung der Gepäckraumabdeckung liegt der Stützhebel engeklappt etwa parallel zur Gepäckraumabdeckung und dem Auflagerahmen. Wenn die Gepäckraumabdeckung von Hand hochgeschwenkt wird, schwenkt zugleich der Stützhebel selbsttätig in seine aufgerichtete Position aus. In der Offenstellung der Gepäckraumabdeckung steht dann der Stützhebel voll aufgerichtet zwischen der Gepäckraumabdeckung und dem Auflagerahmen. Bevorzugt wird diese aufgerichtete Stützstellung über einen Anschlag definiert, gegen den die Gepäckraumabdeckung und/oder der Stützhebel aufgeschwenkt wird. In a preferred, specific embodiment, the support element can be pivoted Preloaded support lever, wherein at least one support lever in a side Area of the luggage compartment cover is stored. In the rest position of the support lever the support lever is folded according to the closed position of the luggage compartment cover approximately parallel to the luggage compartment cover and the support frame. If the The luggage compartment cover is swung up by hand, the support lever also swivels automatically in its upright position. In the open position of the luggage compartment cover the support lever is then fully erected between the luggage compartment cover and the support frame. This upright support position is preferred over a Defined stop against which the luggage compartment cover and / or the support lever is pivoted open becomes.

Auf dem aufgerichteten Stützhebel lastet das Gewicht der aufgeschwenkten Gepäckraumabdeckung, wodurch der Stützhebel in seiner Stützstellung gehalten wird. Der Stützhebel kann in seiner Stützstellung sowohl durch einen Reibschluß gegenüber dem Auflagerahmen als auch durch einen Formschluß in der Art einer Raste gehalten werden. Die Art der Rückstellung des Stützhebels hängt insbesondere von der Dimensionierung der Vorspannung, der Stützhebellänge, des Lagerpunkts und des Schwenkwinkels ab. So kann der Stützhebel je nach den Gegebenheiten durch einen Druck auf die Gepäckraumabdeckung in Richtung ihrer Schließstellung wieder eingeschwenkt werden oder der Stützhebel muß, insbesondere bei einer Verschwenkung in die Stützstellung über eine Totpunktstellung hinaus, in Richtung auf seine Ruhestellung von Hand rückgestellt werden. Grundsätzlich kann der Stützhebel auch hier sowohl an der Gepäckraumabdeckung als auch am Auflagerahmen befestigt sein und sich mit seinem freien Ende jeweils am anderen Gegenstand abstützen.The weight of the opened luggage compartment cover rests on the upright support lever, whereby the support lever is held in its support position. The support lever can in its support position both by a frictional engagement with the support frame as can also be held by a form fit in the manner of a catch. The type of provision the support lever depends in particular on the dimensioning of the bias, the Support lever length, the bearing point and the swivel angle. So the support lever can ever depending on the circumstances by pressing the luggage compartment cover in the direction their closed position can be swiveled in again or the support lever must, in particular when pivoting into the support position beyond a dead center position, in the direction be reset to its rest position by hand. Basically, the support lever also be attached here both to the luggage compartment cover and to the support frame and rest on the other object with its free end.

Für einen sicheren Halt des Stützhebels in seiner Stützstellung wird wenigstens ein Rastnocken für das freie Ende des Stützhebels vorgeschlagen, der z. B. als leichte Erhebung am Auflagerahmen ausgeführt sein kann. Bei mehreren, hintereinander liegenden Rastnocken, z. B. in der Art eines Zahnprofils, sind auch abgestützte Zwischenstellungen zwischen der Schließstellung und der Offenstellung der Gepäckraumabdeckung möglich.For a secure hold of the support lever in its support position, at least one locking cam is used proposed for the free end of the support lever, the z. B. as a light survey on Support frame can be executed. If there are several locking cams in a row, e.g. B. in the manner of a tooth profile, are also supported intermediate positions between the Closed position and the open position of the luggage compartment cover possible.

Als Vorspannelement für einen schwenkbaren Stützhebel wird zweckmäßig eine Drehfeder in dessen Gelenk angebracht.A torsion spring is expediently used as a pretensioning element for a pivotable support lever attached in its joint.

In einer alternativen Ausführung eines Stützelements wird dieses als linear in eine Rastmulde ausfahrbares, vorgespanntes Rastelement ausgebildet. Dabei ist wenigstens ein Rastelement in einem seitlichen Bereich der Gepäckraumabdeckung gehalten. In der Stützstellung bei offener Gepäckraumabdeckung ist das Rastelement mit seinem freien Ende in der Rastmulde eingerastet.In an alternative embodiment of a support element, this is linear in a locking recess extendable, pre-tensioned locking element.
